Bus Stop Generator
add-on
Photorealistic procedural bus stops: 24 real-world designs, 10 structure types, 11 roof shapes, live signs with 3D lettering, ads, seating, footway and wear. Photo-scanned textures, everything is a parameter.
Bus Stop Generator builds complete, photorealistic bus stops in one click: the shelter, its roof and glass, seating, advertising, the stop pole with real lettering, live departure displays, the footway, kerb, tactile paving and road markings. Every part stays live, so you can change any setting at any time and the stop rebuilds instantly.
It starts from 24 real-world designs found on streets around the world: a London shelter with its roundel and countdown display, a German Haltestelle pole, a New York stainless shelter, a Foster-style glass cantilever, the Paris leaf roof planted with greenery, an Utrecht bee stop with a sedum roof, a smart solar shelter, a Victorian cast iron shelter, village timber and brick huts, an Estonian A-frame, three Soviet modernist concrete monoliths with mosaics, a BRT station on a raised platform and a tropical tensile sail.
Then mix anything with anything. Every choice is a picture you can browse, every size is a slider and every feature is a switch.
